POLITICO 44

“We are incredibly fortunate to have someone with Amanda’s terrific track-record join our efforts” the former Pennsylvania senator will say in a statement, obtained by POLITICO. “At a time when President Obama and national Democrats are touting their $1 billion fundraising goal, I am thrilled to have someone like Amanda on our team to help us raise the funds necessary to get out our message of limited government, traditional family values, and national security to the American people.”

Kornegay was finance director for Angle's Nevada campaign, which raked in more than $25 million but ultimately fell short against Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid. She's also raised cash for a number of statewide and congressional campaigns, including North Carolina Sen. Richard Burr's 2004 race.

In a statement Friday, Kornegay will say she is "energized to be helping Senator Santorum combat the Obama fundraising apparatus in the weeks and months ahead.”
